Rob Bishop from the Raspberry Pi Foundation is touring popular hackspaces in the US throughout September 2012 with the aim of giving talks and workshops about the Raspberry Pi to both
hackspace members and also Raspberry Pi users in the local community.

He'll be coming to visit Noisebridge on Saturday, 29-September-2012 at 11am - 5pm. The event is free, and open to all!

The Raspberry Pi Foundation is a charitable organisation founded with the aim of promoting the study of computer science and related topics, especially at school level. The Foundation is responsible for the design and sales of the popular Raspberry Pi single-board computer. You can find out more about the Foundation and the Raspberry Pi at the Raspberry Pi website.

The tour will be blogged/vlogged on the Raspberry Pi website and we hope to attract Raspberry Pi enthusiasts and hackers/makers from across the areas we will be visiting, allowing us to meet and support our community.

The Noisebridge event will be very informal and will consist of the following;

Raspberry Pi: Past, Present & Future - An introduction to the Raspberry Pi, including an overview of its history and development, details on the technical specification and an outline of future developments. Followed by a Q&A session.
